After the Jin State lost and took care of its national strength, the Tiger and Leopard Army, which was attacked, was not much better. √∟ Top Novel,

Wei Zheng, commander-in-chief of the Haw Par Army, has just returned to Datong. The Tatars invaded Shanxi, and the losses brought to Shanxi were sent to the front by Sun Chengzong, the chief of staff.

Looking at the report in his hand, because of the heavy losses of the Tiger and Leopard Army in Liaodong, Wei Zheng, who was already holding back a wave of anger in his heart, completely broke out at this time.

Because, the losses of the Tiger and Leopard Army in Shanxi, in addition to the loss of troops, are not less than those in Liaodong.

On the surface, the Tartars had captured less than six county towns in Shanxi. In Liaodong, at least twenty county towns were captured. However, the wealth and population of each county in Shanxi are definitely not comparable to those of Liaodong.

Because, after more than a year of development of the Tiger and Leopard Army, plus Liaodong is often attacked by Tatars. The population and wealth of each county in Shanxi are equivalent to at least three county towns in eastern Liaodong.

The report that Wei Zheng held in his hand clearly stated that a total of 180,000 people in these captured counties were either killed by the Tartars, or captured by the Tartars, and sent back to Houjin as slaves.

As for wealth, it's even more.

More than five million taels of silver for gold and silver, and five million taels of silver for all kinds of grain...... Without exception, all of them were scraped clean by the Tartars and sent back to the Houjin Kingdom.

It can be said that these county towns at this moment are like ghost towns, empty.

Of course, although these losses made Wei Zheng very painful, but for the Tiger and Leopard Army, which owned the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi. These losses did not reach the point where the Shanxi Governor's Mansion was broken.

But. Heavy losses of the Guards Division. But it made Wei Zheng extremely heartbroken, even though these losses were only more than 3,000 people, less than one-fifth of Liaodong's losses.

Because, the guard division defending the Datong Governor's Mansion is not only a night fighting force in the Haw Par Army, but also the most powerful army in the Haw Par Army. You can use your horse as a cavalryman, and you can use your horse as an infantryman. It is not an exaggeration to describe them as artillery in front of artillery.

You must know that in order to ensure the strong combat effectiveness of the guard division and the loyalty of the guard division to the Shanxi Governor's Palace. In the guard division, an ordinary soldier has the rank of sergeant, and when he is placed in other night combat units, he is a veteran who is a squad leader.

Such a force is not only a killer weapon in the hands of Wei Zheng, but also a cradle used by Wei Zheng to train low-level officers of the Haw Par Army.

And now, a battle down. More than 3,000 people were lost. For themselves, these more than 3,000 soldiers. It is the platoon leader of more than 3,000 tiger and leopard troops. If they are used to expand the army, the more than 3,000 officers and men of the guard division can be directly expanded to 30,000 and six night battle divisions can be formed.

Thinking of this, Wei Zheng held the report's right hand and subconsciously clenched it into a fist.

With anger, after slamming the table in front of him with all his might, he scolded loudly: "Tartar, Huang Taiji, sooner or later, one day, this marshal will personally command the army, kill all the way to your royal court, and exterminate your ......."

After seeing Wei Zheng's anger in his eyes, the military advisor Zhou Shuyuan didn't care as much as Sun Chengzong, and said directly: "Dashuai, the Tartars are indeed hateful, because they are the direct culprits who attacked Shanxi and killed these people and soldiers. ”

"However, I will say that the court is more hateful than the Tartars......"

Speaking of which, Zhou Shuyuan directly took out some of the information he had detected during this time.

Under Wei Zheng's eyes full of doubts, he replied in a gloomy tone: "Dashuai, after reconnaissance and bribery of important ministers of the imperial court, I can already confirm that the culprit of the imperial court, the Tartars, and the Korean army attacking Liaodong together is the imperial court ......."

"In order to deal with our tiger and leopard army, the imperial court even did not hesitate to betray its ancestors. In order to let the Tartars send troops, they even gave the Tartars a hundred artillery pieces as payment. Didn't the imperial court know that firearms were a fatal advantage over the Tartars? ”

"In addition, in order to let the Korean army send troops to Liaodong, the imperial court, which could not even raise the military expenses of the border army, actually took out 500,000 taels of silver as military expenses and invited the table xiàn to send troops to deal with our tiger and leopard army."

"I can say with certainty that if it weren't for those artillery pieces given to the Tartars by the imperial court, with the garrisons we have placed in these county towns, we would definitely be able to hold out until the arrival of reinforcements. Under such circumstances, the losses of our Haw Par Army would not have been so heavy, not even one-fifth of what was reported. ”

Under the guidance of Zhou Shuyuan, Sun Chengzong, who was also holding back a breath of anger in his heart, no longer cared about the court's kindness to him. Immediately behind Zhou Shuyuan, he continued to add.

"Also, as far as I know, the imperial court has deployed at least 50,000 troops in Northern Zhili. And the Tartars, after excluding the losses from the capture of the border pass, are only less than 18,000 when they are full. With such a huge disparity in strength, if it were me, I would definitely try my best to drag the Tartars in Beizhili and eliminate them. But what about the result? Not only did they not send troops to hold these Tartars back, but they also allowed these Tartars to invade Shanxi, burn, kill and loot in Shanxi, and capture several of our county towns in succession. “

"In my opinion, these court officials and soldiers are just a bunch of waste, no, not even as good as ......"

Speaking of this, Sun Chengzong seemed to have thought of something, and he shouted: "Also, Dashuai, the Tartars easily broke through the defense line of the imperial court on the border pass, burned and looted in Beizhili, and even attacked our Shanxi." With the first, there will be a second. In this way, in order to ensure the security of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, we must strengthen the strength of all the towns and towns in the border areas between Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces and Beizhili. ”

"Coupled with the heavy losses of our Tiger and Par Army in this battle with the Tartars. In order to ensure the security of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, we must at least recruit 50,000 soldiers into the field troops in the garrison troops. However, even if these garrison officers and men are trained, there is no way to form a combat effectiveness in a short period of time......"

Under the guidance of Zhou Shuyuan and Sun Chengzong, Wei Zheng immediately transferred his anger to the imperial court. Add to that Sun Chengzong's analysis of the current form facing the imperial court and the Haw Par Army.

A very bold idea came directly to Wei Zheng's mind.

At the same time, a murderous sneer also appeared on Wei Zheng's face.

Faced with this situation, Zhou Shuyuan, who was very familiar with Wei Zheng, immediately realized that Wei Zheng, who was sitting in front of him, must have a better way to solve this problem.

As a result, Zhou Shuyuan's facial expression, which was still solemn just now, was directly covered by expectations.

Facing Wei Zheng, he subconsciously asked, "Dashuai, do you have a better way......

Wei Zheng nodded, and replied with a sneer: "There is indeed a way." The court has calculated us again and again, and after such a long time, it is time to recover a little interest......" (to be continued......
